The aim of this article is to present new, significant facts about the historic organ in the parish church in Hanna, which were originally kept in Huszcza. To date, researchers, including the Author (in his previous article) have been convinced that the organ was built in the 18th century, or at the turn of the 19th centuries at the latest, as their "baroque" stylistic features indicated. However, through more in-depth examination on site in 2012, the Author has determined that the instrument had indisputably been built in the 19th century. What is more, he has discovered yet unknown inscriptions inside of the positive. The first of them these related to the renovation of the instrument from 1919, while the other, which was created around the middle of the 20th century, constitutes a list of organs, together with the numbers of their voices, which were located in the north and east of the old Podlasie diocese, and which document the condition of these instruments from the first half of the 20th century. The ma-jority of the organ no longer exists, which is why the list constitutes such an interesting source. Furthermore, it includes a few instruments from Neo-Uniate tserkovs from the interwar period, which is unusual. Due to the conducted archival research, the Author managed to determine the approximate time when the organ was built, that is in 1847 or 1863, as these are the dates specified by the two sources independently of each other. Undoubtedly, the organ dates back to the middle of the 19th century.
